Important red wine whose vines grow on volcanic soils on the hills of Taurasi. The name of our wine comes from the place where once the horses grazed into the wild, and where the remains of the hermitage of San Quirico. This wine is so precious that it was dressed with a work of art of the contemporary painter Moreno Bondi.
